It ends with Alice being attacked by Umbrella. This is more of a side-story, which ends with the main villain somehow surviving a nuke from a few feet away. Extinction ends with Alice finding out she's the original template for line of clones Umbrella was hoping to weaponize to fight the infection, awakening other clones and hunting down Umbrella.Īfterlife opens with said attack, all the clones die, and the original loses her psychic and super abilities. What's left of Umbrella is trying to rebuild or trying to find a way to stop or re-purpose the infection (literal exposition from the movie). At the end of RE2, the outbreak is contained (with a fucking nuke).Įxtinction opens with 'we know we said it was contained, but it actually spread and killed the entire world. Retribution and Final Chapter all seem to occur over the course of at most a week, with Final Chapter beginning the day after Retribution since Wesker has only just arrived at the Hive when the Red Queen contacts Alice (the journey from Washington to Raccoon City could only take a day at most).įor the movies, in RE1 and Apocalypse, the outbreak in the lab and Raccoon City are 100% accidental/sabotage (which is in line with the original games).

At the end of Final Chapter, Alice intends to go back to Washington to get her. Alice's "daughter" Becky however survived due to Alice moving her to a safe room before the battle with enough supplies to last for a long while.

Wesker only pretended to give Alice her powers back and killed Jill before fleeing, while Leon and Ada were killed by Umbrella's BOW army. The story about the Red Queen being in control of Umbrella and planning to kill all life on Earth was a lie (and really Alice should have known better than to trust anything Wesker says). The novelisation expands on this and explains that Clone-Isaacs and Wesker planned it to gather anyone who could be a threat to Umbrella in one place to kill them all (this is why Clone-Isaacs tells Wesker he failed since Alice, the biggest threat to Umbrella, is still alive). The film says the "last stand" was a trap and Wesker betrayed them - Alice reveals this in the prologue and the Red Queen repeats it later.
